Look out Grumpy Cat. Sir Stuffington may not be pillaging and plundering his way across the seven seas, but the kitten has stolen the Internet's spotlight with its unique cuteness and face that looks like a pirate.

The 6-week-old kitten's stardom happened when a photo of Sir Stuffington dressed up as a pirate went viral.

The kitten with traumatic facial injuries and his brothers were found and rescued earlier this month near a Troutdale, Ore., home. Sir Stuffington has a permanent pirate snarl from a fractured jaw, and veterinarians had to remove one of Sir Stuffington's eyes to help him recover.

The roommates have since made prints and posted them for sale. The proceeds go toward the animal shelter to pay to treat all animals.

Schaffer said the response over the 6-week-old kitten has been overwhelming.

"I think people just see him and see that he's been through so much in his short little life and he's still positive and happy and wants to live," she said.

Once the cute pirate kitten has fully recovered, he will be put up for adoption.

And luckily for Grumpy Cat, the Internet is plenty big enough for two cute cats. Grumpy Cat still has more than 111,000 Twitter followers and has a Facebook page with more than 1.3 million loyal "likes."
